Beauty and the Beast - Live on Stage

Debuting on November 22, 1991 — the same day as the film which inspired it — this 25-minute musical offers a condensed version of the “tale as old as time,” including five songs from the film: “Belle,” “Be Our Guest,” “Something There,” “The Mob Song (Kill the Beast),” and the finale, “Beauty and the Beast.”

It's a nice production overall. The costumes, performers, and production values of the show are all excellent. The movie is compresed into an approximately 30 minute show and the popular songs from the film are performed. Worth a look if time permits or waiting for a fastpass for a nearby ride to become valid.

It is a fun interpretation of the movie / Broadway show. As with any production there are pluses and minuses. The abbreviation of the songs is a minus, but adding the Old Woman at the closing transformation was a plus.If you like Beauty and the Beast, you will like this show. 8/13
